摘要: Edema factor(EF) is a portion of anthrax toxin which produces edema when combined with protective antigen. This paper describes about technique for cloning, expression, purification and activity test EF. Using the E. coli expression system, we could make recombinant EF protein although it`s origin Bacillus anthracis. And also culture massively purify highly pure protein. Finally confirm enzyme purified to increase intracellular cAMP level. Through establishing this technique, it can be possible research in depth apply many other biology.
